Loved the jasmine trees all around the bungalows that you will smell every second. The wooden bungalow was cute and the location is 12 min walk from beach and it’s super quiet in the evening. The owner Liu literally made my stay in Koh Tao. She was so kind and caring. I felt like she is a sister. Really loved my stay:) Orchid Hime is my gateway from the touristic island!

Very quiet location on a hectic island, you feel you are alone on Koh Tao. Great snorkeling right off the beach. Very good restaurant and great shakes! Awesome sea view from the restaurant and rooms. Super helpful owners. We were planning to stay 4 nights with our 5y old daughter but had to extend because all of us got sick (from before; nothing we caught there) and the owners took great care of us, bringing us medication from town and aking us several times a day if we needed anything. Very helpful and incredibly kind of them! Thank you sooo much!!

    Great location, unbelievable view from the bungalow and restaurant, quite little beach and amazing nature around. The deluxe bungalow is very comfy and has everything you need. Hosts provide transfer and taxi service for reasonable prices. Food in the restaurant is delicious and cheap. Some great bars nearby.

    Super clean private room, nice staff and great location! The owner is very friendly, it's honestly the cheapest option on the island (cheaper than hostal dorms) and i really enjoyed the comfortable bed and the 7-eleven just opposite the street! 10 out of 10!

    Great hostel, room gets cleaned every day and there is a simple but free breakfast included. Walking distance from where the parties are but very quiet and the beds are one of the best i've had in a hostel!
